lan-discovery true does not persist after reboot - Ubuntu 22.04

[sgrseanIT]

I worked with the very fine support staff on this: conversation Ticket ID is 15990481

I have nordvpn running on ubuntu 22.04 (not in a vm). I've tried nordvpn v1.0.0 and v3.17.4.

What I think are relevant settings:
autoconnect true
killswitch true
lan-discovery true

I'm also mounting a local network drive via /etc/fstab

On reboot, the lan-discovery true setting seems to not function as expected.

How I narrowed this down:
When I log into the gnome desktop environment it will hang while trying to mount the network drive. If I switch to command line and log in I cannot ping anything on the LAN. If I disable killswitch and disconnect nordvpn, then log out of command line and into gnome, the drive will mount. I can then re-enable killswitch and reconnect nordvpn and the lan-discovery:true setting works as expected until reboot.

This is annoying.

How I resolved the issue:
sudo nordvpn set lan-discovery false
sudo nordvpn allowlist add subnet "mysubnet"

Now on subsequent reboots nordvpn connects as expected and the drive mounts as expected.

Here is an example of another person having this issue, seemingly on a pi: https://www.reddit.com/r/nordvpn/comments/1abm1q0/pi_nords_landiscovery_functionality_does_not/
